Description

The CA3252 is used to interface low-level logic to high current loads. Each Power Driver has four inverting switches consisting of an inverting logic input stage and an inverting low-side driver output stage. All inputs are 5V TTL/CMOS logic compatible and have a common Enable input. On-chip steering diodes are connected from each output (in pairs) to the CLAMP pins (in pairs) which may be used in conjunction with external zener diodes to protect the IC against over-volt age transients that result from inductive load switching. The CA3252 may be used in a variety of automotive and indus trial control applications to drive relays, solenoids, lamps and small motors.
